Visit ancient times with a super mall

"Oh, then you have to tell me about it."

After Chu Chen finished speaking, he waved to the servant to leave, then took Qiuyu into the room and closed the door.

Logically speaking, it would only take an hour to get from here to the other side, even if the boat was slow. If it takes three days to go around, then it is not a problem of reefs.

There must be something strange here.

The biggest possibility is to make money!

Chu Chen thought about it while sitting down with Qiu Yu: "Tell me the reason behind this."

"Sir, when we eat later, you will understand why we have to take a three-day detour."

"The Chu State governs the country through commerce, and there are many ways to make money."

"Oh, how do you say this?"

Chu Chen asked with great interest.

However, before Qiuyu could say anything, someone knocked on the door from outside.

"My two distinguished guests, this is today's refreshments, please enjoy!"

Chu Chen opened the door and saw a girl who looked like a maid holding two cups of tea and speaking with a smile at the door.

Chu Chen took the tea and placed it on the table. However, seeing that the maid didn't seem to be interested, he asked, "Anything else?"

"Sir, tip........."

Shit, this is the first time Chu Chen has heard the word tip after traveling through time for so long.

It seems that once I reach the top floor, there will be a series of expenses to follow.

After hearing this, Chu Chen smiled slightly, took out a tael of silver and handed it over.

"Thank you, dear guest. Please enjoy your meal!"

As night falls, the boat is now sailing down the river.

Chu Chen brought Qiu Yu to a restaurant-like place on the top floor of the ship.

However, this meal taught him a profound lesson. Two people and four dishes cost nearly one hundred taels of silver.

The dishes are just ordinary river fish, but the service is quite good.

The two of them were sitting in a private room, which was staffed by two maids who poured wine and served food to them. Even the cook served them individually.

This inevitably reminded Chu Chen of the modern society. Isn’t that what those high-end restaurants are like?

It seems that the person who opened this route must have been accepted by the modern social model, or at least be aware of it.

Then, the two of them started strolling around the boat.

At night, all the lights on the ship were turned on.

Looking around, it looks like a city that never sleeps moving on water at night.

There are all kinds of industries such as gambling houses, brothels, restaurants, etc.

Moreover, as long as you have money, he will arrange the best service for you.

At this moment, Chu Chen finally understood why it took three days to walk a short distance.

I'm afraid that many people on this ship are not going to the State of Chu, but are here to relax for three days.

After Chu Chen took Qiuyu for a walk, he went straight back to the room.

After three full days, the two arrived at the dock of Chu State.

As soon as he got off the boat, Chu Chen clearly felt that the Chu State's wharf was much more prosperous than the Chen Qi State's wharf.

All kinds of industries are available, and even the tourism industry is booming.

As soon as they got off the boat, they were stopped by a girl.

"You two guests have come all the way from Chenqi Country. Do you need me to take you on a tour and experience the customs of our Chu Country?"

"We have various tour options here, including three-day, five-day, and ten-day tours. We provide luxury carriages and luxury inns throughout the tour, and we also provide individual tour guides."

After hearing this, Chu Chen looked behind him and thought, this is what you call coming from afar?

However, they are very interested in the development of tourism here.

"Haha, I wonder how these three days will go?"

When the girl heard Chu Chen’s interest, she immediately smiled and introduced him.

After these operations, Chu Chen also expressed his professionalism.

"Hehe, but we both want to go to your imperial city, and this route is not right."

"Oh, your distinguished guest is going to the Imperial City. You can definitely choose our ten-day tour of the luxurious Imperial Palace."

Holy shit, even the imperial palace can be visited?

It seems that the emperor of the Lan family has too advanced ideas and is not afraid of spies from other countries.

However, there are only two friendly countries in the entire Xuanyu, so where would the spies from other countries come from?

It seems that this emperor is really good. This is becoming more and more interesting.

So Chu Chen immediately paid four hundred taels of silver, and then followed the girl and climbed into the luxurious carriage that came to receive them.

"It seems that the business of this Chu State is indeed much more developed than that of Chen Chu State."

In the carriage, Chu Chen spoke to Qiuyu.

"Sir, as far as I know, the emperors of the Chu State have a great interest in business and use very clever methods. A few years ago, our Chenqi State suffered a severe drought, and the Chu State even provided a lot of supplies for disaster relief."

Chu Chen nodded after hearing this. It seemed that he would have to meet the Emperor of Chu.

The two of them were chatting casually in the carriage.

Chu Chen mostly looked at the scenery outside the window.

I found that the layout of the entire city is similar to that of Chenqi Country, both in terms of architectural style and layout.

Faintly, there are also some shadows of Daxia.

"Have you been to this Chu country before?"

"My Lord, Qiuyu has never been there, I just heard about her from Master."

"Has your master been here?"

"Master is from Chu, but he seems to have offended someone in Chu, so he came to Chenqi and joined Daotian Sect."

Chu Chen nodded after listening to this. To him, all this was meaningless.

What concerned him most was Xiao Si's affairs.

The carriage moved slowly, and every time it arrived at a city or scenic spot, an inn would be prepared for them in the evening.

Another thing that caught Chu Chen's attention was that every time they arrived at a place, they would take him shopping.

It can be said that all businessmen are dishonest. Every time, they sell something flashy and extremely expensive.

Finally, after walking and stopping along the way for ten days, the two entered the capital of Chu State.

"Dear guest, please have a good rest tonight. Tomorrow, we will go to the palace to visit it."

Early the next morning, Chu Chen and the other man were woken up by the girl.

After the two got on the carriage, they headed straight for the palace.

After seeing the Chu State's imperial palace, Chu Chen became more convinced that the original founders of the two countries must have had a very good relationship.

The layouts of the two palaces are exactly the same, and they were all built with reference to the previous Daxia Palace.

"Dear guests, you can move freely in this palace for the next hour."

"But you must gather here in an hour. You cannot run around, especially inside. That is the territory of our Emperor. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. If something goes wrong, it will be bad."

After listening to this, Chu Chen nodded, then walked away with Qiuyu.

Arriving at the lakeside, Chu Chen asked Qiu Shui to wait for him while he suddenly disappeared and headed straight for the emperor's study.

"Who are you? Hey...why do you look so much like him......?"
